  • Asshole Victim: Logan dies after having Took a Level in Jerkass by badmouthing his late wife and son as cowardly quitters.
  • Bait-and-Switch: When Lexy is fighting Caroline for her dolls, she accidentally causes its head to rip off. At first it looks like Caroline will throw a tantrum over it, but instead, she laughs and rips the heads off the rest of her dolls while Lexy joins her.
  • Blood from the Mouth: Logan coughs up blood right before he dies.
  • Bludgeoned to Death: Junior introduces Logan to the Reaper by bashing his head in with Chucky.

  • Mistaken for Cheating: Exploited. Tiffany kisses Logan, in front of Junior, at Bree's funeral, and then shows up later at their house so she can deliver Swedish Meatballs to Logan. This is so both she and Chucky can manipulate Junior into believing Logan was cheating on Bree before her death.
  • My Sibling Will Live Through Me: Unintentionally. After Bree's death, Logan begins to hit the liquor and gradually becomes more and more like Lucas.

  • Sibling Murder: It's revealed that Chucky tried to get Caroline to do this by killing Lexy.
  • Speak Ill of the Dead: The last thing Logan says before he dies is saying that Bree died because she was a quitter.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: After Logan starts drinking, he becomes a lot nastier.
  • Troubling Unchildlike Behavior: After Lexy rips the heads off of Caroline's dolls, rather than crying about it, Caroline just laughs and joins Lexy in tearing the heads off the rest of her dolls.
